Everywhere it's the same concept (Same)
One girl dey hustle to make success (Eh)

See this innocent soul is serving everyday in the church

Nigerian singer Jaywon has addressed his critics in a recent post on X, stating that he is unbothered by negative comments and trolling.

The Odun Yi crooner, whose song has been a staple on airwaves every new year for 13 years, responded to critics who have been trying to bring him down.

Jaywon specifically mentioned being called the "African Mariah Carey", saying it doesn't bother him and is actually a compliment. This comment is seen as a direct response to critics who have been trying to belittle him.

Interestingly, one of Jaywon's most vocal critics, fellow Nigerian singer Odumodublvck, recently posted a surprising message on X, saying "Every time I troll Jaywon. I promote him. You think I'm not aware?. I love him." However, fans have dragged Odumodublvck for his continuous criticism of Jaywon.

The exchange between Jaywon and Odumodublvck has sparked a wider conversation about the role of criticism and trolling in the music industry. While some see trolling as a harmful and unnecessary practice, others believe it can be a form of promotion and publicity.

Jaywon's response to his critics has been praised by many, who see it as proof of his confidence and dedication to his craft. The singer remains grateful to his fans and to Jehovah, saying "After over a decade, we're still here, still loved, and still supported, and for that, I'm endlessly grateful."

Anti World Gangstars, Odumodublvck & Reeplay - Amabanga Lyrics

One, two, three, let's go

Now I wan party (olololo)
When I commot from Panti, I free (olololo)
I dey go, this Antiworld party (elelele)
Elelele, olololo

Men at work, e too sure
If na my vibe wey dem want
Make dem put body
Na we go burst your speaker
Two meters na the least
Lagos to Paris, look at me, I'm him
Na we dey burn the meters
Play bet, play tete, sure odd
Any play, I got put body (blord)
Heavyweight, anaconda, Amabanga, Antiworld
Na my own plan B

No check am, e don go
E dey strike, dey go like Sango
Asuu, no be child's play
No be beans, ewa goyin, mai mai

I dey put body, I dey show full face
I dey feel cozy for the ucee space
We dey burst setting, koti no see trace
No way, the gang no dey stay one place

We no dey stay one place
Antiworld, we too dey waka waka
Na from UK, we just lap
Jump on Amabanga
Before, dem been dey form for us
But now, dem no fit do us yanga
Before you go reach where we dey now
You go need taller ladder

We dey grind, we dey work
We dey chop, e dey show
You think say I go let you overtake me?
Make I know
I go bash your car
I go take you off the road
I go run am on code
On a low low low

Men at work, e too sure
If na my vibe wey dem want
Make dem put body (make dem put body o)
Two meters na the least
Lagos to Paris, look at me, I'm him
Play bet, play tete, sure odd
Any play, I got put body (blord)
Heavyweight, anaconda, Amabanga, Antiworld
Na my own plan B

Money no be problem
Go ask Sarkodie
Na them been dey ball
As e be, we don sack them
You dey wait, make dem sack my set?
Omo, you go wait die
Which kind stoner dey bring only one tie?
Shima get toto wey carry nine lives
So it's right that I hit am ten times
My ginger is gingered
I'm kpanshing her careless
Like advert for Fearless
Omo, I can careless

Banger go bim bim bim bim (aye)
Sound boy go sing sing sing sing
They be calling on Gustavo
Say mi call call
Hotline go dey ring ring ring ring
Earpiece dey ti ti ti ti
Living large, make dem call the police
100 opps, but dem no compete
Ama bang on any tune
Making money with the mandem

Men at work, e too sure
If na my vibe wey dem want
Make dem put body (make dem put body o)
Two meters na the least
Lagos to Paris, look at me, I'm him
Play bet, play tete, sure odd
Any play, I got put body (blord)
Heavyweight, anaconda, Amabanga, Antiworld
Na my own plan B

Now I wan party
When I commot from Panti, I free
I dey go, this Antiworld party

Nigerian heavyweight superstar Davido continues his streak of hot releases with a brand new single, Funds, featuring ODUMODUBLVCK and Chike. Following the success of his previous release, Awuke, which featured YG Marley, Davido seems unstoppable as anticipation builds for his fifth studio album 5IVE, reportedly set for release in 2025.

Produced by the talented Ucee, Funds masterfully samples the timeless classic Vulindlela by South African music icon Brenda Fassie, adding a nostalgic yet refreshing vibe to the song. The production is top-notch, Ucee's craftsmanship shines as the beat transitions seamlessly between the distinct patterns of the three artists involved, ensuring that their unique characteristics stand out while maintaining a cohesive sound.

At its core, Funds is an anthem of abundance, confidence and love. Davido uses the track to flaunt his financial success, emphasizing that money isn't an issue. The lyrics suggest he's willing to spare no expense in exchange for the love and affection of his muse. The chorus, where all three artists combine their vocal prowess, reinforces this theme, creating an irresistible hook bound to resonate with fans.

The chemistry between Davido, ODUMODUBLVCK, and Chike is palpable. Davido’s infectious energy sets the tone, while ODUMODUBLVCK's unique, gritty delivery adds a fiery edge. Chike, known for his soulful voice, brings depth and emotion to the track, making the collaboration feel organic and perfectly balanced. Each artist brings their A-game, complementing each other’s strengths and delivering a performance that highlights their artistry.

Sampling Vulindlela serves as a cultural bridge that connects generations and regions across Africa. Brenda Fassie's anthem has long been celebrated as a symbol of freedom and joy, and its inclusion in Funds pays homage to her legacy while introducing it to a new audience through a contemporary lens.

With rumours swirling about a fifth studio album in 2025, Davido’s steady release of high-quality songs suggests he’s laying the groundwork for his monumental project, 5IVE. If Funds and Awuke are any indication, fans can expect a blend of innovative sounds, big collaborations, and a vibe that sees Davido as one of Africa's biggest musical exports.

Listen to Funds here.

Nigerian rapper Tochukwu Ojogwu, popularly known as Odumodublvck, recently thrilled hundreds of congregants at a church service held in honor of his mother's 70th birthday.

The music star, who had previously staged a birthday party for his mother, took to the stage to perform a special song in her honor.

Clad in traditional ankara attire, Odumodublvck got the congregation on their feet, asking them to clap along as he sang Hallelujah, Hallelujah. However, the rapper momentarily paused his performance, expressing dissatisfaction with the sound quality of the microphone. He explained that he had a special song prepared for his mother and wanted to ensure it sounded perfect.

This heartwarming display of filial devotion is a far cry from Odumodublvck's usual rap persona. Interestingly, his foray into gospel-inspired music was previously met with amusement by fellow artist Davido, who couldn't help but laugh at Odumodublvck's unexpected genre shift.
